the stench from the train

yes, this one has not only noise, it has an odor. I should have suspected as much when I noticed the banana peel in the crack between the seat and the wall panel. and come to think of it, some of the noise stinks, too.

like the noise the college chicks are making up there. well, one of them, anyway. she's blabbing with volume and authority about how she wants to have "like, two acres of land so I can devote it to a labyrinth." A labyrinth? I thought a labyrinth was something that mad scientists had in their basements. But she allowed as to how she spent some time in one this summer and how at peace she felt. Go figure. Or take a class in women's studies at Yale.

And of course this land has to be near to The Cape. And she doesn't like some guy who's a "womanizer" and "lying sack of shit."

doll, whoever you rope into marrying you will be getting exactly what he deserves for being such a moron. Oh, I don't know. Do the even get married anymore?

but the smell is like a wet sleeping bag or clothes that have been left in the washer for a week.
